Generate counter-based one-time codes from a Base32 secret.

Prepare the right input

Enter a Base32 secret and an unsigned counter.

Choose six or eight digits and generate the current code.

Review before using the result

Advance the counter explicitly when your service expects it.

RFC 4226 HMAC-SHA1. No account synchronization, secret backup or automatic counter advancement. Server and client counters must stay aligned.

Privacy and trust boundaries

Inputs remain in this browser. No online reputation, account, DNS or remote key lookup is performed. A static inspection is not a security certification.

Use the sample to learn the workflow. Clear sensitive input after use; private exports and clipboard contents require careful handling.
